Interpreti Veneziani
A new ensemble on the Italian and international concert scene!
This is how, in 1987, the Interpreti Veneziani made their debut, immediateley gaining a reputation for the "...exuberance and all-Italian brio characterising their performances”.
A datum point in a worlwide musical panorama, the Interpreti Veneziani reached their XXXI Concert Season in Venice, which includes more than 60.000 viewers every year from all around the world.
Their important achievements include appearances in the Melbourne Festival, in the Bayreuth Festival, in the Prague Music Festival "Vàclav Hudecek" and concerts at Stockholm's Royal Palace, participating in the World Vision tele-marathon at the Kirov Theatre to mark the "reinstatement of the name St. Petersburg", a concert at the Osaka Symphony Hall in live broadcast for the Japanese radio, concerts at the Tokyo Suntory Hall and Kjoi Hall.
United States, Japan, Canada, Latin America alternate every year in their calendar with concerts in the most prestigious halls. In 2013 they performed for the first time in India. This year they'll return to Japan and South America.
San Vidal Church
Possibily founded around 1084, under the doge Vitale Falier, San Vidal was dedicated to its patron saint.
Once inside the church, we are immediately stricken by the principal altar painted by Vittore Carpaccio.
Tradition narrates that in the San Vidal church the famous Venetian musician Baldassare Galuppi was buried (died on 17th January in 1785).
